Coast boys.
Now, will they arrest the black guy with the man bun or will they run because they are afraid of being called racists. Drum roll please
Next.
Coast Trash!
This cat works for Noble Energy. He was probably rooting for University of White Sunglasses and Cargo Shorts.
This is Mr. "say something" guy, from the video. Starkville PD said something. "you're under arrest".
southern fans
4:46: supposedly the police called him and told him to turn himself in, and he has not yet. Whether he continues to make it worse for himself or not, they will get him. He has been identified. Also from the coast. Give it some time
This all would have been settled and ancient history ... but thanks to the hero filming this, it will be dredged up for years to come.
Innocent schoolyard fights used to air grievances and bury hatchets, but no longer.
10:43, when you're 22 years old, you outgrew the schoolyard a long time ago.
WTF - how long does it take for these idiots to graduate from a half-ass, glorified JUCO? 22 and 23 years old?

Everyone making comments based on speculation needs to learn facts before trash taking. It looks like your home town/school kids need to learn now to treat woman and also that you can’t bully everyone you cross....if you read today’s news; your little frat boys seem to be making this a habit. This is all the evil work of the devil. We all need to teach our kids to be respectful but how can that happen when ignorant adults on here bashing the kids when they don’t even know facts. Grab your Bible and find God and lead your kids there as well.
11:46 AM, this beat-down took place on a school campus did it not? In fact, it took place on one of our state's finest institutions??
No, 3:16, it did not.
Since when is mutual combat betwixt adults a crime?
Will never go to trial. This is not a bog deal.
Since when is a fight (brawl or otherwise) between consenting, participating adults, a crime? Who filed charges? Strutting peacocks? Yes. Reminded me of Cecil Brown and Holland walking the halls of the legislature. Pomposity on parade.
To answer 8:14 p.m. and 12:15 a.m., the following laws were apparently passed in 1956 and 1960, respectively:
Any person who shall enter . . . any other public place whatsoever, in the State of Mississippi, and while therein or thereon shall create a disturbance, or a breach of the peace, in any way whatsoever, including, but not restricted to, loud and offensive talk, the making of threats or attempting to intimidate, or any other conduct which causes a disturbance or breach of the peace or threatened breach of the peace, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not more than five hundred dollars ($500.00) or imprisoned in jail not more than six (6) months, or both such fine and imprisonment.
Miss. Code Ann. § 97-35-13.
Any person who disturbs the public peace, or the peace of others, by violent, or loud, or insulting, or profane, or indecent, or offensive, or boisterous conduct or language, or by intimidation, or seeking to intimidate any other person or persons, or by conduct either calculated to provoke a breach of the peace, or by conduct which may lead to a breach of the peace, or by any other act, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by a fine of not more than Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) or by imprisonment in the county jail not more than six (6) months, or both.
Miss. Code Ann. § 97-35-15(1).
Crime in the cotton district is pretty common. This is from 2016.

The Starkville Police Department is increasing its physical presence in the Cotton District after a Mississippi State University student was shot to death there earlier this month.
SPD is opening a police substation at 621-A University Drive, across from the intersection with Maxwell Street, after former Mayor Dan Camp offered the location to the city free of charge.
The shooting
Five Lowndes County residents face felony charges for their alleged roles in the Nov. 6 shooting death of 21-year-old Joseph Tillman.
Jaylen Barker, 20, and Syboris Pippins, 18, are both charged with capital murder. SPD identified Barker as the alleged shooter, while Pippins was originally charged with robbery.
Barker also faces one count of possession of a stolen firearm.
Also charged with accessory after the fact were 16-year-old Tyler Harris, 22-year-old Jamario Pippins and 19-year-old Brandon Sherrod. Those three suspects, along with Barker, were arrested hours after the shooting by Oktibbeha County deputies after they allegedly fled the Maxwell Street crime scene.
Syboris Pippins was arrested two days after the shooting.
Starkville Police Chief Frank Nichols said Tillman was walking along Maxwell Street, between Stagger-In and Bin 612, when he was approached by a number of suspects. The group interacted together for a few minutes, he said, at which time an alleged robbery attempt occurred.
Tillman was a 21-year-old senior marketing major at MSU when, in the early hours of November 6th, 2016, he was approached on the street in the Cotton District of Starkville by Barker and two others. Court documents say they asked for change for a $100 bill, and when Tillman tried to help them, two of the men grabbed his wallet and ran. He chased them and was shot dead by Barker.
Mr Tillman was the salutatorian at Pillow Academy in Greenwood, Mississippi.
